During a later investigation of the crime scene, the police recovered a torn piece of cloth that led them to the girl.
"She was taken into confidence, following which she confessed to the crime. She narrated the story of how she was being blackmailed and raped by him and others for the last six-seven months", said the SHO.
SHO said the girl once used the 45-year-old man's phone to call a boy she used to talk to. The man recorded the phone call and started blackmailing and raping her.
